Important reminders
from US Census,
本校是美國人口普查局的合作伙伴，其公關專員徐敏子女士轉來了重要提醒
DO …
· Do refer people to official Questionnaire Assistance
Centers whenever possible.
· Do make sure you are familiar with the 2010
Census materials and concepts. For
more information and helpful documents, consult
the official 2010census.gov website.
· Do use official Language Assistance Guides
available at 2010census.gov for people with limited
English proficiency.
· Do answer questions about the census in a private
area.
· Do ask the respondent to seal the envelope
and mail the form right away via the U.S. Postal
Service.
· DO NOT …
· Do not pretend to be an official Questionnaire
Assistance Center or use the official census logo
if you are offering assistance.
· Do not help people complete forms or volunteer
to staff the Questionnaire Assistance
Center if your organization is hosting an official
center that is staffed by a sworn census employee.
· Do not gather completed forms for mailing at
a later time. Ask respondents to place their completed
forms in mail receptacles that are emptied daily
by the U.S. Postal Service.
· Do not offer to collect or “bundle” the 2010
Census Forms. It is important to avoid any suggestion
of impropriety. Respondents should return their
own census form by mail through the U.S. Postal
Service.

About Us
The Bay Valley Chinese School
is a non-profit organization supported by a group of dedicated and
motivated teachers and parent volunteers. BVCS does not discriminate on
the basis of race, color, nationality, ethnic origin, or religion.
Incorporated in 2001, the school boasts an enrollment of over 200
students for the very first school year!
Our school fund comes from student tuition, and student family/friend
donation. The school budget is used on campus rent, custodian/janitor
fee, teacher’s compensation, teaching/student material, and school
activities. Besides the teachers, all members of the BVCS staff receive
no pay.
The 2006-2007 school year is BVCS's fifth year. Chinese classes are
offered from the kindergarten through 12th grade levels. Classes are
held at Charlotte Wood Middle School (600 El Capitan Drive, Danville
CA), Friday evenings from 7:00 - 8:50 PM in two 50-minute periods with
a 10-minute recess. The 2006-2007 school year consists of 32 weeks of
instruction divided into two semesters.
The objective of BVCS is to provide an excellent environment for
students to learn Mandarin Chinese Language and to explore Chinese
Culture. Our teachers are all highly experienced and specialized in
Chinese language teaching. They are very caring, and know how to
inspire students to have an appreciation for Chinese culture. BVCS puts
an emphasis on providing students with more individual attention and
plenty of time to practice conversation with the teacher. Starting in
the 6th grade, students learn pinyin, which will prepare them for
college-level Chinese Language courses.
Starting in the fall semester 2003, BVCS has been offering Enrichment
Program to BVCS students and teaching assistants. The Enrichment
Program is designed to create a fun and exciting place for children to
learn about different aspects of their cultural heritage that are only
touched upon in textbooks. Classes are on Fridays from 6:00 - 6:50 PM,
20 students per class.
Parents’ involvement is a key
to the success of our school program and to the success of our students
and their learning. Our school welcomes your involvement to make it a
better place for your children and our community.
*BVCS does not discriminate on the basis of race,
color, nationality, ethnic origin and religion.
